Travis Kelce and his ex Kayla Nicole seemed to have similar plans of attending the Miami Grand Prix. But while Kelce is fixated on the race, Kayla had an NBA update to share from the Hard Rock Stadium after LeBron James’ Los Angeles Lakers got eliminated from the playoffs second year in a row.

Kayla Nicole took to Instagram and shared a couple of stories as she watched the Formula-1 cars whiz by her lounge. Moreover, her recent Story made a mockery out of the Los Angeles Lakers missing on the Larry O’Brien Championship Trophy once again.

One of her IG Stories captioned, “closest the gang getting to this @lakers,” shows Nicole kissing the Championship trophy, and the caption surely takes a jab at LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers for losing a playoff round to the Denver Nuggets back-to-back. She appeared to be holding the trophy while someone is making a boomerang video of her kissing it.

The Nuggets won the game by the length of a hair as they stood 4-1 by the end of the Playoffs Round 1. The game ended 108-106 in favor of the Denver Nuggets. LeBron James dropped 30 points and played for 44 minutes, gathering 9 rebounds and 11 assists. Other players on the team struggled to go past 20 points.

As far as the Denver Nuggets are concerned, Michael Porter Jr. (26 pts), Nikola Jokić (25 pts), and Jamal Murray (32 pts) came out as the main playmakers for the team. Perhaps that’s why Kayla Nicole didn’t hold back when she addressed the Lakers as they faced back-to-back yearly losses. Coming back to Nicole’s newly found interest, her recent exposure to motorsports is gaining a lot of traction as she expressed her liking for Lewis Hamilton.

But her connection with the Formula 1 doesn’t come to a halt here. Turns out Nicole has butterflies for the 7x F1 Champion Lewis Hamilton. Apparently Hamilton is trying his hands on shooting guns and turns out, he’s pretty good at it. He turned his inner John Wick as he tried to shoot assortment of handguns and assault rifles.

This got Kayla Nicole’s attention and she re-posted the video on X with captions, “Men being good at things is hot. (I will not be elaborating).” Now that she has been inducted into the Formula 1 one world, we hope to see more of her in the upcoming championships and competitions.
